So does this car change the plans you had for the convertible? I leaning towards fuel injecting mine but I can't decide with what. First, Edelbrock, Ls1..... I have to go the most economical with mild performance.

Why would you say that? You know nothing about my cars or what I have owned. I concider a mild cammed car with good heads a mild performer compared to what the lsx world has to offer. Rock on though.

That camaro is amazing. If the underside was all gloss black with those coilovers it would look sick. Good luck with it!

^^haha

He will correct me if I'm wrong but I'm pretty sure he has as many, if not more areas of income than he does vehicles. He definitely earns his money, he has a great quote on his fquick or somewhere. He is an extremely motivated person which is why he gets to treat himself so well. We could only dream of such lofty aspirations... Haha, Nice ORANGE 1st gen. Tony!

Among many of his talents, Tony is an engineer. A few years ago he shared this idea of starting a web site for car enthusiasts and called it LS1Tech.

The rest can be found by doing a search.

Sweet car shaped orange. j/k. looks good! love 1st gens!

but, what are your plans for the 1000hp LS7 as i've heard those aren't the best motors for boost b/c the cylinder walls are too thin?
